June 9: Help deliver final blow to ACTA

Aktualizované: 2012-06-07

On Saturday June 9, activists across Europe are taking to the streets to
protest against the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA). They
demand that the European Parliament should finally reject this
controversial treaty, which would greatly harm citizens' rights. The
Parliament will hold a plenary vote on ACTA in July.

A wave of popular protests in February showed policymakers that endorsing
the treaty was risky. Several EU member states are wavering in their
support. The Dutch parliament has even voted to prevent the government
from signing the treaty. However, ACTA is not dead yet. Those in favour
of a free information society need to keep up the pressure until the
European Parliament finally rejects the treaty.
